The Guardian's Sword

Chapter 869

“Calm the f“ck down?”

Jon slammed his phone to the ground.

Thud!

A new phone was once again smashed into pieces.

Jon shivered with anger, and blood gushed from his throat again.

“It must be Sean. It must be him again!”

Jon shuddered and slumped on the floor with a thump.

Quill and his mother stepped forward to help Jon, flustered.

“Dad, are... are we still escaping?”

Quill asked, slightly gritting his teeth and looking up.

“Escape? Where could we escape to?

“Escape abroad and starve to death?”

Jon was ghastly pale as he showed a bitter smile.

The Zimmer family was on the brink of annihilation.

No matter how aggressive Sean was earlier, he did not think he was defeated.
All it cost him was the Zimmer family’s business in River City.

With money in hand, he could make a comeback somewhere else.

However, Sean had quietly transferred away the last of his life-saving funds.
Where could Jon, penniless and having hundreds of millions in debt, escape to?
Even if they could escape, how would they survive without money?

Jon was convinced that there was no other way to save Zimmer Corporation.
“Sean, you're cruel. You're tough!”

Jon clenched his teeth as he clenched one hand.

He initially thought Sean’s ultimate goal was to take over Zimmer Corporation.
He later learned that taking over Zimmer Corporation was not the main goal.
Sean's goal was to take over the land.

Zimmer Corporation's crisis and troubles were mere preparations he made to get
the land that Jon had mortgaged.

However, Jon now realized that Sean's real target was not only the land but also
the 300 million dollars

Jon raised!

Sean was not only going to take over Zimmer Corporation, but he also wanted
the land and even kept the money Jon had raised personally!

What was even scarier was that Jon did not know if this was Sean's ultimate goal
or if he had any further plans.

“I can’t believe Sean has been leading me around the whole time, and I didn’t
even notice it...

“Sean anticipated every move I made!”

Jon finally realized what had happened.

However, it was too late now.

“Jon, come out!”

“We know you're here. Hurry out!”

There was suddenly shouting from outside. The companies that had invested in
Jon had found their way here.

Jon shook his head again as he smiled ruefully.

This residence was so private, yet these people had found it so quickly.

Sean must be behind this too.

Jon gritted his teeth slightly before getting up and heading outside.

He could not hide.

His only option was to face it.

A sinister plan also appeared in Jon's mind.

“Sean, you want me dead!

“And you can forget about having it easy.”

Jon gritted his teeth and stepped out.

Outside the door.

Hundreds of cars and hundreds ofpeople blocked the intersections around
them.John's fundraising involved over $300 million, which wasthe total working
capital of many companies.It was enough to disruptRiver City's entire business
circle.Countless companies were involved.News media reporters around them
were alsocarrying cameras, holding microphones, and waiting. When John
walked out, everyonegathered around him instantly.Yesterday, John was a River
City business mogul.Today, he had become a fleeing rat.Many reporters began to
rush to thefront while talking to the camera.Ladies and gentlemen, I'm Lillian,your
reporter for Today.We're currently at John's private home asterisk Johnsold his
shares in Zimmer Corporation in advanceand personally raised up to $300
million.But today, government departments confirmed that Johndoesn't own the
development rights for theland in downtown River City.Now let's ask Mr.Zimmer if
he has areasonable explanation for what happened.The reporter conveyed
several important messages tothe crowd in a few sentences.First of all, John had
sold Zimmer Corporation.He had nothing to do with Zimmer
Corporation.Secondly, John's fundraising waspersonal, not corporate. Therefore,
the companies could collectthe debt from John.Smart people could immediately
understand that. The reporter said that deliberately. Someone must have arranged
for her to say so.Sometimes that was how public opinion was steered.However,
no one cared about these at this point. They were waiting for John's
explanation.John scalp tingled as he looked at thecrowd, but he had to play it
cool.
